Your tale would cure deafness from sitting on a deserted beach for 13 years listening to nothing but the sea waves

So, the storm was all simulated? I can't find that in the play unless we're talking about act 1.2.20-30 "Lie there, my art" (all his powers in his cape?) and, "I have with such precision in mine art so safely ordered that there is no soul- no, not so much perdition as an hair betid to any creature in the vessel." Did he cause the tempest and then make sure everyone was safe, or did he just simulate a storm? Is this why Miranda is talked down to by her father then, because after all this time she still cannot see the power behind his art? This is true I suppose, but then more clearly Miranda's innocence is seen by the fact that the first real man she ever sees she immediately pines for.

Porcupine quills are dangerous

Brother battles are compelling stories due to their place in every brothers life. The struggle between Antonio and Prospero reflects a recurring theme that is eternal between all brothers. It's simple really, big brother has to keep little brother in check, until of course little brother gets bigger than big brother and shipwrecks him on a lonely Island in The Mediterranean Sea. Unfortunately for myself the same thing happened to me. I'm not sure when Ethan started getting taller than me but after it happened keeping him in his little brother place, behind me, became very challenging. No longer could I overcome him with sheer force so I had to introduce new methods, such as porcupine quills. Interesting note on those things, once you stab someone with them, they don't come out easily. Have you ever pulled up on some shag carpeting? That's what it looks like when your trying to remove a quill from your little brothers back while he's, understandingly, screaming for relief. Doctors have to become involved, and then things get all out of perspective and instead of looking like your just trying to do your older brotherly job of checks and balances, you look like a jerk. This is whats going on with Prospero and Antonio, except instead of Antonio apologizing after sticking his brother, he figuratively keeps the quills in his back by leaving him on a deserted Island. Eternal recurrence has a way of working everything out however, and Prospero's bookish obsession hones his magic skills and shipwrecks Antonio, and Ethan is just 5 inches taller than me so he can kick my ass without magic. And as for how this all relates to fwake, well I'm sure there's a couple Cain and Able references in there.
